With a crunchy golden exterior and tender mushroom inside, they are a delightful treat that pairs well with a variety of dipping sauces. Preparation Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 10 minutes Total Time: 25 minutes Ingredients 500 g mushrooms (button or cremini work best) 1 cup (120 g) all-purpose flour 1/2 cup (60 g) cornstarch 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon paprika Salt and pepper to taste 2 large eggs, beaten 1 cup (240 ml) buttermilk (or regular milk) Vegetable oil, for frying Directions Clean and slice the mushrooms into thick slices. In a shallow bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, combine the buttermilk and beaten eggs. Dip each mushroom slice into the egg mixture, then coat it in the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry the mushrooms in batches for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the mushrooms from the oil and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

Pair with a fresh salad for a light meal or enjoy as a side dish to burgers or sandwiches. Cooking Tips For extra crunch, double-dip the mushrooms (coat them in the egg and flour mixture twice).
